WriterMate's reading

It has risen 3 weeks in a row — the point where a one-off and a real trend start to separate. 100.0% of the titles carrying modern USA also carry modern fantasy. It is more accurate to read this as the "modern USA + modern fantasy" combination moving, rather than the setting on its own. Next most common: fantasy(66.7%), healing(66.7%).

All three works in the 'Modern America' setting this week feature protagonists who suddenly acquire wealth or start new businesses after retirement. The protagonists expand their businesses based on their immense financial resources.

What changed from last week — Last week, there were only two works, 'A Black-Haired Special Agent Acquires a Ranch in America' and 'Fired But Won the Powerball and Now Runs a Hotel in America. ' This week, 'I'm a Low-Level IRS Agent, and All Sorts of Big Shots Fear Me' has been newly added.
